A member asked:
Do all ovarian cysts show up on ultrasound?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Ultrasound is very sensitive to proper preparation for the test...A full bladder and no gas is important to see the ovaries adequately. If the ovaries are well seen then cysts on/in the ovaries are well seen...Need to know how well the technician felt they saw things during the test.
